THE STORY BEHIND JADE ACTIVE:A stay-at-home mom, Maxine Berg, had a vision for a viable, happy business. Before children, she was a litigation and real estate attorney, however, she had an idea that she thought could make work and that fit her life with a family of three children. When Maxine researched and surveyed, she concluded that there was a niche in the the world of retail for her concept: provide one stop shopping for busy fashionable women who lead active lifestyles. Maxine found that more and more women wanted high quality fitness wear and versatile lifestyle pieces to take them from the gym to their meeting, to lunch, to school pickup and beyond. And Jade was born!
